So yeah, this weekend I ended up watching Madoka.
The text here is from Preacher’s Kid by Jim Manley - we had it in a church songbook at my house when I was little; I’ve looked and I can’t find a recording so you’ll have to take my word for it I guess. I always liked it - it was a silly song, but it spoke to that social isolation and pressure to be perfect that a lot of PKs feel, when you’ve got not only your own little-kid-looking-up-to-their-parent thing but also the general culture of the community indicating that your parent is a source of wisdom, I guess? Until you hit a point where that kind of dries up, and…
Well, most of us don’t go the “become a magical girl to make people listen” route, but I guess I kind of identified with Kyoko in that I know what it’s like to watch a congregation, and with it the major source of our family’s livelihood, drift away in spite of my dad’s best efforts? It’s not a good feeling.

So if a character can be described by the sentence &#8220;I&#8217;m going to fly around under my own power and be a hero because fuck you, fuck you is why,&#8221; there&#8217;s a pretty good chance I&#8217;m going to like them.
And possibly draw them wearing the costumes of other such characters.

Sooooo went to Wondercon today. And as is my wont, sketched trolls. Apparently I think going to a con would be a good pale date???

Wings are fun.

Oh look Bramble drew something that isn&#8217;t Homestuck!
Project for my illustration art class - so I got to use the fancy tablet monitors at school on this.
Shrike&#8217;s an old OC of mine who I occasionally revisit. She&#8217;s kind of bitter and snarky and oversensitive about things and overprotective of her friends and is a total magical badass.
